KNEPH
Egyptian River God
Also known as Cneph
Mysterious ram-headed Nile God
This Nile God leaves one feeling a bit numb because just as you have managed to spell his name right you find he may really be Khnum or one of seven thousand variants.
Whatever, he has a ram’s head and messes about with the waters of the Nile. Could he be a God of Sheep Dips?
He may also be the father, son or second cousin of Ptah, or even Ptah himself. No-one seems to know, least of all us. Help!
